Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis A"

Peg interferon and ribavirin currently represent the standard approved association for treating patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) . The adjunction of amantadine is expected to gain about 10 % of sustained virological response (SVR) . Unfortunately, about 50 % of the patients remain relapsers or virological non responders. The main predictive factors of SVR are HCV genotype and body weight (BW). The impact of the drug pharmacological properties, particularly those of ribavirin requires complementary studies. This drug has a large distribution volume and its concentrations display large inter-individual variability. Two studies performed in HCV patients found no correlation between ribavirin dose adjusted on BW and a single ribavirin time point serum concentration at steady state. The aim of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships of ribavirin in hepatitis C patient

This is a Phase IV, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the real world sustained virological response rate, subject adherence, and subject reported outcomes during and after treatment of non-cirrhotic genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C subjects aged 18 years and older, with VIEKIRA PAK (ombitasvir, paritaprevir/r, dasabuvir), with or without RBV (ribavirin).

This is a study to evaluate ABT 450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 in treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced Asian adults with subgenotype 1b chronic HCV without cirrhosis.

The investigators will treat 100 patients with cirrhosis due to hepatitis C with sofosbuvir 400 mg daily, daclatasvir 60 mg daily and weight-based ribavirin (1000 mg/d if <75 kg, 1200 mg/d if >75 kg, divided in two daily doses) for 12 weeks and calculate the sustained viral response rate at 12 weeks.

This is a proof-of-concept study for GC1102 to demonstrate preventing the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection following liver transplantation and a dose-finding study to determine its optional dose.

This is a prospective study to determine the incidence, morbidity, mortality and predisposing factors for the reactivation of hepatitis B virus replication during direct anti-HCV treatment of HCV/HBV co-infection patients.

The purpose of this study is to validate a strategy of identification of patients for early liver transplantation in severe alcoholic hepatitis. In this setting, short-term survival is very low (approx. 25% at 6 months) and a pilot study has suggested (mathurin et al. N Engl J Med 2011) that liver transplantation may be an option in very carefully selected patients who did not respond to medical treatment. This selection process deserves to be confirmed in a population of greater size. We hypothesized that patients selected with this process would have a same alcohol relapse rate after liver transplantation than patients transplanted for alcoholic cirrhosis and selected using a 6-month sobriety period

This clinical trial will test two new therapies for the treatment of alcoholic hepatitis. Patients who "respond" to the current standard of care therapy for alcoholic hepatitis(corticosteroid/prednisolone therapy) after 1 week of treatment will be randomly assigned to either continue on standard therapy, or, to begin treatment with rilonacept in combination with standard therapy. Patients who are "non-responders" to the current standard of care therapy after 1 week of treatment will be randomly assigned to standard of care or to begin treatment with mycophenolate mofetil in combination with standard therapy. Patients will be treated for a total of 4 weeks in this clinical trial. Patients will be followed for up to five months after completing therapy (6 months total).

A randomized, open-label multicentre clinical trial of daily Myrcludex B versus entecavir in patients with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B.

This is a multicenter study in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infected adult patients who also have advanced cardiac disease or advanced lung disease.
